Updated: Man fatally shot at Laytonville pot grow ID'd

Mendocino County Sheriff's Office have identified the man found shot at a marijuana grow as Hugo Olea-Lopez, 23, from Upper Lake, Calif.

Preliminary findings indicate Olea-Lopez died from a single gunshot wound to the torso. Sheriff's detectives are continuing their investigation and have yet to determine a motive or identity of any suspect(s) in connection with the homicide, a release states.

According to the MCSO, a relative of Olea-Lopez reported shortly before 8 a.m. Monday that the man had been killed at a remote location on Spyrock Road in Laytonville.

Deputies, assisted by the California Highway Patrol and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, responded to the area and found the Olea-Lopez's body at approximately 11:15 a.m.

Investigators also reported finding "approximately 300 budding marijuana plants that had been recently cut as if to be harvested." The plants had been growing both outside and inside of "at least two temporary greenhouse structures."

Sheriff's detectives determined that the victim had been camping at the location while tending to the growing marijuana plants, and had been found close to the cut plants.

MCSO detectives have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death, and officials ask anyone with information to call the MCSO Tip Line at 234-2100.

Detectives were assisted by the Mendocino Major Crimes Task Force, the County of Mendocino Marijuana Eradication Team and the Mendocino County District Attorney's Office.
